Scicloj AI Meetup 5 # Agentic Data-science # Structured Data from LLMs # MCP SDK

This will be the fifth meeting of the new scicloj-ai-meetups group co-organized by @stoica94 and @daslu.
Note, this is a slight rescheduling of an event post that was previously announced.
Agenda


@pragyansden - Reliable Extraction of Structured Data from LLM Responses
JSON formatting in LLM APIs increases response time and prevents streaming.
I’ll demonstrate how Instaparse helped us extract structured data elements from LLM responses as they arrive. It enabled us to stream UI operations that empowers agentic workflow for our No-Code platform.
We will walk through some practical techniques to parse streaming LLM outputs efficiently while maintaining structured data integrity.
(See also Pragyan’s recent blog post, Taming LLM Responses with Instaparse.)


@siavash_mohammady - Agentic-Driven Data-science
Data-science tasks like data preparation takes time, In this lecture we are reviewing how could we increase productivity of Clojure data-scientist through using of LLM Agent.


@vedang - Writing MCP servers in Clojure, for fun and profit

What is MCP, if you’ve been living under a rock

Interesting future directions in the Protocol, what I like / don’t like
Future direction, ideas, contributing, Q&A
